A summary of the video: 1) Eliminate Interruptions: Dedicate time for a single task and prevent any interruptions. 2) Get Organized: Organize your desk, computer file system, organize work environment. 3) Plan Your Day In Advance: Make a list of things you'll do with their priorities. 4) Turn off the internet: A source of distraction, turn off mail, facebook etc. 5) Stop Multi-tasking on Important Tasks: Multi-tasking decreases productivity.
admit it, you're procrastinating and suddenly felt guilty so you just opened RUclips and now you're watching this knowing you still won't change anything.
+smileyourock There are many components to learning to focus. One plan I discovered which succeeds in merging these is the Magic Focus Plan (google it if you're interested) it's the most incredible blueprint that I have ever heard of. look at all the interesting info .
I really want to try blocking myself from social media while I'm at work. I heard that tip originally in 4 Hour Workweek but never got around to trying it. Now's the time!
We're always multi-tasking. We even do it when sleeping. We breath, produce blood, protect our body against infections, our stomach acid (Hcl (hydrochloric acid)) is digesting food (for those who are going to say that some people don't get food or are fasting, then this one doesn't apply to everyone), we are processing things in our mind and we are doing cooking or gaming or stuff like that.
Sean!! Congrats on the BIG experts academy win!!! I knew the minute I saw this video that you would be one of the top 5!! Have a great trip and keep up the great work!!
Very helpful. Could you do a video on discipline? I think I know that I need to do these things but I have trouble disciplining myself and I am easily distracted.
Jomusicspirit I'm not sure but ,if anyone else trying to find out how to focus better try Megarno Fast Focus Magician(do a search on google ) ? Ive heard some awesome things about it and my m8 got great success with it.
Just want to give a short answer to your discipline question. This is taken from the book the One thing. It this book they state it is a myth that successful people are extremely disciplined. Successful people are only disciplined enough to develope a habit. Once something becomes a habit you don't need to exert as much energy. On average a habit takes about 66 days to develope. Hope this helps.
That was such a good vlog! I was thinking when sean said eliminate interruptions that I watch youtube while im doing things then I get hungry and stop doing my task. So basically I end up eating and watching youtube, lol. Ok Ill try it monday, chucks of time set a side, no interruptions, no internet stuff, no multitasking, and planning the day. This was an exciting vlog, since i have so much to do. loved it:P
People have asked me the same question for years. I just never knew how to explain my process except to just stop talking and DO LOL. Sharing your tips with all of them. Thank you, Creative Blessings!
Thanks Sean, I keep needing to be reminded of these strategies. I do it well for some weeks and then backslide :) especially the multitasking - ok so my excuse is AD/HD :) but I just found my appointment book last night. I used to be faithfull with it every day and then misplaced it. Now you have given me the impetus to use it again every day. LoVe Pauline. p.s. see you at Experts Academy! :)
I think it's unthinkable that you grasped the meaning of saving time at such a young age.From Linda. The picture is my husband. I haven't had time to attach a photo of myself LOL
What about multi tasking on tasks such as doing dishes? For example, when I don't prefer silence, I like to listen to podcast while doing dishes. In this case, my main task is doing dishes, but my focus seems to be on the podcast because of the content. Great video overall, thank you! :)
I love this Sean. I'm watching your video stuff recently that you've done but I went to this video and this is huge. I waste so much time. Great, thank you.
Hi Sean, I found your video informative and entertaining. The only thing I missed was a summary at the end giving the 5 essential tips to increase the productivity. Apart of that: WELL DONE and USEFUL ! Thumbs up!
Thank you for the tip...i hope it helps me double my work production in the coming days of the life. i hope to find more about productivity at work from your blogs.....thank you
Nice presentation Sean and useful reinforcements of things we may all be aware of on some level, but benefit from hearing again and again and again, until its ingrained enough to produce action. Thanks for your contribution.
+Julius Khoo There's this website/app called "Stay Focused". I'm not even joking. All it does is block the distracting websites for however long you set up in advance. I might start using it.
Another tip, if watching youtube videos such as this the google and change your youtube to use html 5, if im not mistaken, then you can fastforward a video like this 2x and still get the same information out of it.
I have been praying that God helps me to feel less stressed and less overwhelmed with all I have to do in my life (single, full time work, mom) and how crazy that I came across this video! God is great all the time! Your tips helped me so much! Wrote them all down and gonna hang them on my fridge! Thanks sooooo much SeanThinks!
my interuptions come from my own thoughts.I'm 22 and i can't concentrate at all. i'm a doll maker and weirdly i can only focus on that. its so frustrating. Anything where i have to write , i need another adult to sit next to me at all times almost because my concentration is that bad.Which is very annoying because i definitly have accademic interests, i can talk about them but i can't write about them..especially if i'm going to be graded. it makes me fear going back to school.I've also been told i was stupid by a lot of teachers so i always fear that too.Seriously, all my life i've tried to not get distracted by my own thoughts. it doesn't work at all. :(

You have a choice. You can go to school with structure and a social life, or you can get home education and be lonely... Also, I am at uni and although it might be boring sometimes, this is what I want, i enjoy it and I know I'm working on my own future.
A summary of the video:
1) Eliminate Interruptions: Dedicate time for a single task and prevent any interruptions.

I've interrupted the video to read your comment, and I just won 8 minutes
You're a brilliant person
I still recommend watching it because it elaborates on those points with info that may be helpful.
You amazing person
Thank you! Now I don't need to re-watch the video so you've saved me time 😀
Double your productivity: Start from 1:38
I should be working right now and i'm here watching vids like these.
admit it, you're procrastinating and suddenly felt guilty so you just opened RUclips and now you're watching this knowing you still won't change anything.

+Paul Lesieur I hope this is not just spam
+Uboa For criticising people he/she doesn't know about their motivations and lives.
Blew Criticising? It sounds to me as he is making a joke
I doubled the playback speed of the video, my rate of procrastination has doubled but takes up the same amount of time
I really want to try blocking myself from social media while I'm at work. I heard that tip originally in 4 Hour Workweek but never got around to trying it. Now's the time!
Who else is getting this recommend in 2020, that too out of nowhere 😂😂 . Love the way Sean has transformed in these 7 years.
We're always multi-tasking. We even do it when sleeping. We breath, produce blood, protect our body against infections, our stomach acid (Hcl (hydrochloric acid)) is digesting food (for those who are going to say that some people don't get food or are fasting, then this one doesn't apply to everyone), we are processing things in our mind and we are doing cooking or gaming or stuff like that.
You post this 7 years ago??? How come I just came across this?! Love the advice. Is helping me so much!! 😁💗

Getting organized would make a huge difference for me.
BRILLIANTLY executed Sean, thank you.

Thank you for these tips. They are helpful. I think the hardest part is just disciplining yourself to actually do them.
What about multi tasking on tasks such as doing dishes? For example, when I don't prefer silence, I like to listen to podcast while doing dishes. In this case, my main task is doing dishes, but my focus seems to be on the podcast because of the content.
Great video overall, thank you! :)
Planning is important. Sticking to the plan is more important. I personally use a time tracking app called Freckle to keep me focused and productive.
does it help?
I love this Sean. I'm watching your video stuff recently that you've done but I went to this video and this is huge. I waste so much time. Great, thank you.

There are several components to focusing. One resource I found that successfully combines these is the Magic Focus Plan (check it out on google) definately the most incredible blueprint that I've seen. look at the extraordinary info .
Great video. It's really important to learn how to make things happen without sacrificing your life.
I dont have any clear reason, but i just spontaneously like it. Maybe it is because of the cool vibe
Awesome video... Very very nice tips...I couldn't agree more with u..!! Thanks....!!

What's up brotha, thanks for the insight I met you at the church LV. Much love.
Sean... Thanks man.
but really id be way more productive if i didnt have to go to school seven hours a day five times a week.....
True AF
+Дмитрий Лебедев lol we do or else our parents will be arrested
And if you didn't go to school you would be uneducated and unproductive.
+bigbobabc123 not true. You don't need to go to school to get educated
You have a choice. You can go to school with structure and a social life, or you can get home education and be lonely... Also, I am at uni and although it might be boring sometimes, this is what I want, i enjoy it and I know I'm working on my own future.
Really great tips! Thanks :)
